At Israel Discovered, we offer flexible tour options to fit your interests, lifestyle, budget, and time frame.

You Drive
I will join you as a passenger, helping you navigate to the mainstream or hard-to-reach sites on our chosen itinerary.
Israeli roads are well-maintained and signs follow European standards.
Guide & Drive
In my Ministry of Tourism registered vehicle, you will relax as my passengers! The guiding fee includes the cost of guiding, driving, the vehicle rental and gas. Parking, tolls, extra mileage and other transportation fees are calculated separately.
Notes:
Guiding fees are on a per tour basis and are to be paid at the end of each tour. Fees do not include transportation (except where stated otherwise), entrance fees (if any), refreshments, incidentals, accommodations, or gratuities. Rates do not include the 17% VAT (Israeli value-added tax) unless otherwise stated. A deposit is usually required.
While most tours are based on either Half Day (4-4.5 hours) or Full Day (to 9 hours) options, customized tours of any length can be arranged.
For multi-day and overnight tours, clients cover the costs of accommodation and meals for the guide (and if separate, for the driver), and an additional daily fee.
Contact me for 2017 rates for Private Guiding, Guide & Drive, and overnight tours.
Rates includes itinerary planning for days hired.
